Abstract

Ergosterol biosynthesis inhibiting triazole fungicides (tebuconazole, cyproconazole, propiconazole and difenoconazole) were effective against late leaf spot (Phaeoisariopsis personata [Mycosphaerella berkeleyi]) of groundnut. They also reduced stemcolonization (rot) by S. rolfsii [Corticium rolfsii]. Tebuconazole (as Folicur) and cyproconazole (SAN 619) were the most effective (64.2% reduction) against C. rolfsii. The plants remained healthy and intact until harvest and less predisposed to attack by C. rolfsii.
